You had a reading about a sheriff who stopped a mob who was fixing to kill three innocent people. What questionable thing did the sheriff do?First, how is this relevant to my comprehension of micro? Second, it's obvious that the use of base vernacular does not prevent one from becoming one of the world's leading economists.

in studying for microeconomics...
Tonight I came upon a problem from last year's midterm:

climbing more mountains
I have a shitload due on Monday.
Accounting problem set. Assessment of Nortel financial statement. Read Sealed Air case study and be prepared to present in Marketing class. Microecon take-home midterm due. Microecon real-life midterm Monday evening.
And then there's the McCombs wine club event on Friday. I've already paid $45 in dues, so I totally have to attend.
Not to mention go to my Apple Procare appointment on Saturday to move all the data from my OLD Apple to my NEW Apple... Yes, despite the fact that the UFCU now owns my soul for the next 8 or so years, I splurged on a shiny new MacBook. Because I need it for Stats and no one can tell me otherwise.
Oh and I have GOT to go to the Saturday tailgate and TX-Iowa game. I paid for season tickets, so damned if I'm not going to use every ticket that won't turn out a decent profit.
And the Epicurean club is meeting for dinner at a chic Thai restaurant on Saturday. A girl's gotta eat, right? So that pretty much blows all of Saturday out of the water.
I also have the beginnings of a cold, thanks a lot to A. Zicam is my closest friend these days, as I absolutely cannot afford to be sick right now.
All this, and yet I find myself sitting in the Carpenter Center - a veritable social wasteland where work tends to fall by the wayside and conversations gravitate towards weekend plans, b-school gossip and the scandalous events of the last Think-and-Drink... Why am I here, you ask? Because I'm a grad student these days and thrive on the rush of procrastination.
Sorry so discombobulated... I know I've been absent lately and will try to do better, but honestly, who has time to rehash the glory of orientation and my new best friends and, oh god, PERU? Just call me if you want the details.
